答案:A
B
Jars of memories
Our children grew up on peanut butter (花生酱) and jelly (果酱) sandwiches.The right jelly delights them,and homemade one is the only choice.
I wasn’t the jelly maker in this family.My mother-in-law was.She didn’t provide a wide range of flavors (味道),either.It was either grape or blackberry.And since we liked both flavors,we usually picked whatever jar was at the front of the pantry (食物储藏室).
It was always there.Jelly making was just a way of life for her.She always did it,following the same rituals—from picking the fruit to setting the finished jelly on the homemade shelves.
This past December,my mother-in-law passed away.Among the things in the house to be divided up were the remaining canned (罐装的) goods.Each of us chose from the many jars of tomato juice,green beans and jelly.
The other day I reached in there to get jelly for a quick sandwich,and there it was.Sitting all alone on the far side of the shelf was a small jar of grape jelly.Written on the lid with a black marker was “GR” for grape and the year the jelly had been made.
As I picked up the jar,I suddenly realized something that I had failed to see earlier.This was the last jar we would ever have from my mother-in-law’s patient,loving hands.Our children had never known a day without their grandmother’s jelly.It seems like such a small thing,but it is a great treasure.
